Ortiz Menendez E.T.S. de Ingenieros de Minas, Universidad Politecnica de Madrid, Rios Rosas 21, 28003 Madrid, Spain. [email protected] Abstract. The main events of the history of petroleum in Spain are the following: 1) The mining concession of petroleum named El Progreso is the first one in Spain and occurred only seven years after Edwin Drake (1819-1880) drilled the first oil well in Pennsylvania. 2) The first survey of oil production in Spain, well known as the Tejon borehole, was conducted by the Sondeos de Huidobro Company in 1900, in Huidobro (Burgos), and reached 501 m of depth. 3) In 1964 CAMPSA and AMOSPAIN found petroleum in the Ayoluengo field (Burgos), with a borehole of 1,349 m of depth. This was the first and only petroleum field in the continental Spain in this zone. The Ayoluengo petroleum field has been active during 35 years. In this paper we will review the history of petroleum in peninsular Spain. 1. INTRODUCTION It has been historically known the existence of several oil evidences of solid, liquid and gaseous seeps in Spain. These evidences have guided the identification of areas that are favorable for the research of petroleum deposits.

A high-resolution daily gridded precipitation dataset was built from raw data of 12 858 observato- ries covering a period from 1950 to 2012 in peninsular Spain and 1971 to 2012 in Balearic and Canary islands. The original data were quality-controlled and gaps were filled on each day and location independently. Using the serially complete dataset, a grid with a 5 × 5 km spatial resolution was constructed by estimating daily pre- cipitation amounts and their corresponding uncertainty at each grid node. Daily precipitation estimations were compared to original observations to assess the quality of the gridded dataset. Four daily precipitation indices were computed to characterise the spatial distribution of daily precipitation and nine extreme precipitation in- dices were used to describe the frequency and intensity of extreme precipitation events.

  • The Landforms of Spain
    UNIT The landforms k 1 o bo ote Work in your n of Spain Spain’s main geographical features Track 1 Spain’s territory consists of a large part of the Iberian Peninsula, the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean, the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea and the autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla, located on the north coast of Africa. All of Spain’s territory is located in the Northern Hemisphere. Peninsular Spain shares a border with France and Andorra to the north and with Portugal, which is also on the Iberian Peninsula, to the west. The Cantabrian Sea and the Atlantic Ocean border the north and west coast of the Peninsula and the Mediterranean Sea borders the south and east coast. The Balearic Islands are an archipelago in the Mediterranean Sea. The Canary Islands, however, are an archipelago located almost 1 000 kilometres southwest of the Peninsula, in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, just north of the coast of Africa. Spain is a country with varied terrain and a high average altitude. Spain’s high average altitude is due to the numerous mountain ranges and systems located throughout the country and the fact that a high inner plateau occupies a large part of the Peninsula. The islands are also mostly mountainous and have got significant elevations, especially in the Canary Islands.

    27/01/2016 Written question ­ Spanish customs checks ­ E­000365/2013 Parliamentary questions 15 January 2013 E­000365­13 Question for written answer to the Commission Rule 117 Sir Graham Watson (ALDE) Subject: Spanish customs checks Answer(s) In response to Question E­009971/2011, the Commission stated that it does not routinely monitor the customs checks performed by the national authorities. However, it suggested that Member States should select custom controls based on ‘risk management’ factors as provided for in the customs legislation. Gibraltar remains outside the customs union, and therefore alcohol and tobacco may be available at lower cost than in Spain. The Spanish authorities have implemented thorough checks on individuals and vehicles at the La Línea frontier. On some days every vehicle will be checked and inspected for contraband, and such an approach can lead to severe delays at the border — sometimes of up to six hours. The Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Principality of Andorra which entered into force on 1 July 1991 establishes a customs union with most­favoured nation status between the Principality and the EU. However, VAT and duty on alcohol and tobacco are far lower in Andorra than in Spain. Melilla and Ceuta benefit from an autonomous preferential agreement with the EU, but neither is part of the EU’s customs territory. Citizens travelling from these territories must also abide by customs and tax allowances for travellers similar to those applying to people travelling from outside the EU, just as is the case for those crossing from Gibraltar into Spain.
